In some way, yes, and in some ways, no. As long as the rank and file do not care what the higher ups say and still go about their job with the dignity and professionalism, in the end they are the winners. We/They all know that change always comes to those who wait.
I teach USAF pilots. Probably 95% of the people who apply are white men
The affirmative action hires end very unhappy people and give the qualified women and minorities (of which there are plenty) a bad name.
Then our new 2nd LT CO wandered in and took charge of the shop with her degree in fashion merchandizing.
Patricia Schroeder pushed that fiasco.
China is going to destroy our military in the coming war.
I dont care what color they are, we need to stick with the best qualified, most skilled pilots. Period. No affirmative action pilots.
What, we need more?
I am really troubled by the absence of East Asian males in the NBA. A clearer example of racism cannot be found!!!
The problem is all of these white bread liberal ####s have never stepped foot in a project.
I have many times.
One would not believe what does on and how life is lived in many instances.
The kids almost have no chance.
We want them executed when they commit a horror at 20.
I get enraged too.
But they never had a chance.
I put a lot of time into 2 kids there. 13 and 15 when we met.
I won’t be in contact with them anymore and I can only hope that what I taught them sunk in a little.
But they had seen too much already and I think they will go right back to what was.
What a shame
Air force pilots.
They can’t even get out of high school or stay out of jail 3/4 of the time.
And that’s a shame too
No, this is another one of Obama's "perfumed messenger boys", who survived the Great Purge, because he was politically reliable.
Vast numbers of O-5s and above were RIFed out, denied a promotion and shown the door, their careers killed, sent to dead-end commands, if they were not Democrats. The remainders are now demanding "diversity." They are now base commanders, the heads of planetary commands, JCS lackeys.
Future: shoveling s*&t, Louisiana.
Lets apply Affirmative Action to the NBA, NFL etc!
Used to ‘wee wee’ people off when they would complain about the lack of Black Admirals/Generals, and high enlisted rates and just tell them that if one wasn’t going to put in the time etc, they weren’t going anywhere.
A lot of people just don’t/couldn’t/won’t grasp that.
Maj Gen Thomas is a UPT washout.

Hes a UPT washout. Explains a lot.
( And if the Babylon Bee wants to steal this, feel free to)
we don't need token pilots...
Your post is complete nonsense!
How does diversity create a highly capable fighting force?
He wants 'the most capable members of society' which means merit.
If the most capable are White do we discriminate against Whites just to have racially proportional representation?
